That's bullshit, corporations sell you what they tell you you need, and convince you that you need to change the phone every 2 years, that you need anew car every 5, and that you have to eat the new organic bullshit nutrient rich superfood.

you are not as free to think as much as you think you are (and neither am I... I am not cooler than you)

All of those things are things that are very easy to say no to? I swapped the battery on my phone, I don't have a car but "my" car at my parents house is from '99. I eat food that I like. I'm not saying I'm impervious to bad decisions, or even that these are always bad decisions, but the people who buy a new phone or car every few years its because they like to.
